Founder Story

Hi, I'm Sowmya. I founded Lumera to help companies build high-performing finance teams by leveraging the power of AI.

Before Lumera, I served as Controller at OpenAI—the creators of ChatGPT—joining the team in March 2023 during the launch of ChatGPT Plus. While there, I scaled the Controllership function to accurately report on multi-billion-dollar revenues and support a platform of over 400 million weekly active users.

Prior to OpenAI, I was the first accounting hire at Rippling, leading the Accounting team through a period of extraordinary growth from a Series A startup into a decacorn valued at over $10 billion. Earlier in my career, I held key finance leadership roles at various technology companies, including Square during its IPO.

Through these experiences, I've developed deep expertise in applying software and AI to streamline finance and operational workflows. I'm excited to share these insights with you!
